At least one groove (13) is provided in the adaptor surface (12) of the hopper (5), in which a hollow elastic seal (14) is located. The seal cavity (15) is connected to a first controllable gas system (20) for controlling the pressure inside the cavity and the temperature of the gas flowing through it. A filling system for a shaft oven, especially a blast furnace, comprises two cone-shaped bell jars (6) which are vertically movable and positioned one above the other, two hoppers with an adaptor surface in their bottom side, and a system for moving each of the bell jars towards and away from the adaptor surface. At least one groove is provided in the adaptor surface, in which a hollow elastic seal is located. The seal cavity is connected to a first controllable gas system via an inlet (18) and outlet (19), used to control the pressure inside the cavity and the temperature of the gas flowing through it. An Independent claim is also included for a blast furnace with this filling system. |
